@paat So just to be clear, you have a Dell branded usbc cable?

I have a dell branded usb c ethernet adapter on a 7400 and I can pxe boot into the fog compatibility menu (I don’t want to image my workstation at the moment) and ping devices. So I know the network adapter works. Also when we image we typically use the WD15 dock (the WD19 docks are flaky some times with pxe booting). That way we charge the laptop as well as image at the same time.

This is the dell usbc dongle we are using: https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-adapter-usb-c-to-ethernet-pxe-boot/apd/470-abnd/pc-accessories

Also what version of FOG are you using as well as what FOS Linux kernel version do you have?

Also, something to note, I had another machine I was testing this on and if you do not do the disk cleanup and remove the old windows installations the new inits work just fine. It appears the cleanup messes something up for some reason.

@Tom-Elliott yes

Nevermind disregard this post I switched out the adapter and now it is booting. thanks for your time.

@Tom-Elliott Cool. I’m still going to advise against updating the OS though. It causes way too much noise in my day, and imagine people coming from 10 and 12 ? No telling what sort of problems that brings.

I’m not able to replicate the memory usage, but what I could suggest is to up the memory limit? I don’t know, what, on your system is trying to use it all. You can Up the memory limit from FOG Configuration Page->FOG Settings->General Settings->FOG_MEMORY_LIMIT. It’s done in megs, so 128 = 128M, 256 = 256M etc…

SUCCESS! I have successfully created and deployed the images for these machines in efi mode. Thank you for all the help!
